What about the V6 and 197/200. They are all wide and agressive looking with go fast diffusers and grills in the wings and twin exhausts etc...

Valvers arent too bad really given their age etc but if your in that kind of budget maybe have a look at a 200SX S13. I picked mine up for £550 and it has been endless fun since, if your looking at a fast car for that budget though expect it to go wrong imo, old cars have faults you need to be...

^Dammit Jamie ditch the lady for a weekend and come and see us, um better to beg forgiveness than to ask for permission?

CRX without MOT could easily turnout to be a nightmare, all the ones I've seen round here are owned and given absolute death by chavs...

Bargain at £450 if its all in good nick with original owner etc, shame about the clio though mate :( 2 cars and a scootay and you want more ;)

^Yup they do. If you want a wheel that wont melt, buy an aftermarket one.

Ok I'll give it a try on the wheel thats likely to be put in the boot as a spare and see how it goes...

I'm currently painting my wheels in satin black so I want to try and protect them a little bit using some laquer or clear coat, the problem is I only have gloss laquer and when I used it on matt paint it looked absolutely pants. Can any-one recommend a clear coat to use on Satin Black without...

If you warm the rattle can of paint up in some hot water for about 2 mins before you paint it seems to go on the surface a lot better, its worked for me before and i've not had the orange peel effect.

Re: Project 172 **** ITB'S - 204bhp *** Sausage filter fitted Page 14 Bens car wasn't the loudest one there lol.

Going back a bit here, but my 1st clio on FK Highsports and 17s ;) I loved that wee 1.2 lol.

I have 15s in a clio fitment, 2 white 1 black 1 silver. No budget rubber though sadly...

Clios are the fastest cars ever... 2R9qmX6FmwQ ...But the bicycle is still faster. End.

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project *phew, my offer no longer stands ;)

:rasp:

Its not about not understanding it, the stickers look pants as they are just a bunch of half assed coined phrases about loud sound systems. Rat look cars look cool if done properly...

I must admit the stickers ruin it for me aswell, they are actually worse than bumper stickers imo.

Re: N/W Xmas Meet I wont kart but I'll defo come along. mebbe karting then onto a pub for a big pub dinner, muscrap? ;)

? oh and sticker please ;)

I've considered keeping the CA but to make me trust it I want it rebuilt with braided feeds for the turbo and a new turbo pref on roller bearings to try and keep the lag down. With all that its not a cheap job and for similar money I may be able to get a V8 producing similar power but in a...

standard engine, 3 turbos so far haha.

The escort looks nice ;) I'm not a huge fan of SXOC, it seems that if you dont know your car inside and out then your not good enough to be on there or something heh, rules me out completely

Manchester... The police probably would have joined in tbh, and then arrested us if they lost.

Pft, it was an industrial estate it doesn't count as street racing, we didn't even have to close the roads or use police scanners...

Escort sounds nice though, pics? South wales is too far away. I've heard good things about DCMS and they are about 30mins away if that.

The Ignis has a better chassis and steering ;) It just doesnt have the looks lol

I want to get away from turbo however I want some power. Also, instant torque ftw. An RB would be an ok conversion but it would still be a turbo so it will still theoretically be as temperamental as the CA just with more expensive replacement parts. The same goes for a 1/2JZ. With a V8 its nice...

Hmmm, I guess we'll have to see. The downside is it'll be a used engine but the upside is it'll be an n/a toyota engine so it should be reliable. It will be more reliable than my CA18 is and than the reports of CA18s on SXOC so imo well worth it. The biggest cost will be the fabricated parts and...

In the mean time I have a 172 haha

I'm guessing around £2-2.5k for parts this is based on prices of the actual parts and guestimating the cost of any fabricated parts. This will probably wind up doubling as most project budgets do but if thats right then it works out really well as that would be around 300hp so would still be...
